I am consumed with the research project.  Kristen called late in the afternoon to say that there was a fund raiser at Texas Road House for a little boy with leukemia, Jacxson.  We all decided that this would be a good way to contribute to a rendezvous was arranged.  James and Holly went ahead.  They were starving and Holly has her biggest final in the morning.  Kelly and Aaron bowed out in that they have made a pact never to eat at Texas Road House again, because there is always something wrong with their food and professionally they do not approve.  Kelly said that she would donate in some other fashion.  The Royal Oakers were getting packed up and ready to go when J/H called to say that the place was packed and it was at least an hour wait.  They were opting for Red Lobster, across the street.  Royal Oakers joined them at a near by table and we all had seafood instead of steak.  We'll all need to donate alternatively.  Kristen and I both had tummy troubles after our dinner out, so I think I'm going to need to follow the Gnap edict and never eat at Red Lobster again.  My stomach upsets have happened too many times for it to be an isolated case.  So I bid a fond adieu to seafood that I love because it's not worth the evening of agony!
